Isn't what you are looking for: LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=fr that is, all locale stuff defined to en_US.UTF-8, and French translations if available. > If so, maybe we should separate encoding from language, make > one UTF-8 locale, and encourage people to use > LANG=whatever LC_CTYPE=UTF-8. LC_CTYPE is not independent of the language. For exemple in Turkish the capitalization of "i" letter is different than in English or French. That is defined in LC_CTYPE. -- Ki �a vos v�ye b�n, Pablo Saratxaga http://chanae.walon.org/pablo/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0xD9B85466 [you can write me in Walloon, Spanish, French, English, Italian or Portuguese]
